Salvation for all mankind, the big picture from the Lord's point of view.
Does it seem cruel to you that the Father allowed Jesus to suffer so much for us humans?
God sees the big picture, we see only in part. Can our finite minds ever fully understand how a loving Father would allow such suffering?
We must keep in mind, Jesus was with the Father in heaven and during earths creation, and Jesus said He would come down to earth and redeem us back from death and destruction.
The perfect Lamb of God, without sin. It was His choice. He knew what kind of death He would have to suffer.
1Peter 1:18-19
Knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot.
Jesus was already slain from the foundation of the earth.(Rev 13:8)
God had given mankind a free will to make choices, mankind chose to rebel against God, and so from the beginning God had a backup plan, something the enemy could not stop with his lies and deceptions.
Man could not save himself, not by his good works, following laws and traditions.
Only the shed blood of the perfect Lamb of God could bring provide our salvation.
John 1:29
The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, "Behold! The lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world.
Romans 3:21-26
But now the righteousness of God apart from the law is revealed, being witnessed by the Law and the prophets, even the righteousness of God. through faith in Jesus Christ, to all and on all who believe.
For there is no difference; for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified freely by His grace through redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom God set forth as a propitiation ( appeasement) by His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over sins that were previously committed.
We could not save ourselves, neither can we change ourselves to be like Jesus. That takes the work of the Holy Spirit in our heart.
We can say we will never do that again, but we do it again, because of the old sinful nature called flesh.
Only the Holy Spirit through our submitting to Him, can change us from the inside out.
Try as we may, to be good, we will fail unless the Holy Spirit changes that area in our life.
That will take God's grace to be applied to that flesh, and then we will realize there is a change.
Grace is unmerited favor, that is why the Lord has given to us the Helper, and given the Holy Spirit the job to walk along side of us and teach and train us in the ways of God. We who have received Jesus as Savior, are now heirs with Him, we are royalty. This world is not our home.
Don't try to understand all that comes into your mind about God, just except it by faith and walk in the freedom Jesus paid for you to have.
Remember beloved, Jesus Christ paid a high price for you, He loves you, and if you were the only one on earth He would have came and died for you.
Obey His word, and enjoy all the benefits He has provided for you, (Psalm 103:1-5) through His word, and by His blood, for His kingdom is righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
God bless your day
Jesus loves you
Love in Jesus
